* Today I took the kids to visit Isaac's grave for the first time. They kept getting confused as to where it was because we don't have a grave marker yet. He would have been one month old today.
* We are going to have a little getaway as a family this weekend, thanks to our kind friends Ryan and Tabitha. They are letting us borrow their family's cabin -- thanks guys!
* Yesterday we looked at the parts of a flower under a magnifying glass for science. Then we played outside. As I was straightening out our garage, I heard this LOUD little voice exclaim, "Mommy! Look how BIG your bottom is!" I quickly turned around to find Emmie about two inches behind me, peering through the magnifying glass with a look of awe on her face. Gotta love that.
* A dear friend told me on Wednesday night that they are expecting again; it's their fourth. They found out they were pregnant three days before Isaac died and have been waiting to tell us. I am happy for them, but I also felt really sad.
* Allison learned to ride without training wheels! I can't wait to go on a family bike ride.
* Found a hilarious site about cakes that are complete disasters from my friend Bobbi. You should check it out!

I'm so glad Emily was looking at your butt through a magnifying glass. I was thinking, gosh she does NOT have a big butt and I wonder where Emily got that from. But all is safe...
The magnifying glass story totally made laugh. Kids are so funny.
I can't believe Allie is riding without training wheels! Congrats Allie!! We worked on that with Maddy a little this summer but still haven't mastered it.
Have fun this weekend!!
Just checking in with your blog and it is wonderful to see some happy news. I'm still here, still praying for you and your family, and hope that you have a great cabin getaway.

Hope you are having a great time! We miss you! Allie must be so proud of herself:) That is fantastic, even more so is her beautiful relationship with the Lord. It is such a blessing to be a parent and share these special moments with our sweet children.
